The Suffocate at Night

His body loved her / his mind was set on other things / Keep your face out of sight / and your thoughts to yourself / And this went on for several nights / festering in silence, growing in the dark / and this they saw as love / Love / So sad to see / They suffocate at night / Oh this they saw as love / Love / So sad to see / to see it slowly die / She met his wishes / he found that he had changed his mind / Now the fit is too tight / and the bedroom too warm / The days are filled with things to do / Night-time lies so hollow and memories betray / Oh memories of love / Love / So sad to see / They suffocate at night / Those memories of love / Love / So sad to see / to see it slowly die / Two years have passed / two years of emptiness inside / and the grey skies above / just show how far I went wrong / I wonder if she's living there / the way that I recall / the way I'll always think of you / And when I think of you / I think of love / Love / So sad to see / They suffocate at night / You know I think of love / Love / So sad to see / to see it slowly die / I wrote you a letter / I threw it away / I wrote you a letter / I threw it away / I need her / I know I don't need her / I need her / Oh / Oh-oh... / Dadalala...
